CURRENT COMMENT.
AS 1T is VIEWED FROM THE INTERIOR.
ST l,oufs Globe Democrat

81. Louis GloDe-Democrat.
1t is an unpleasant fact that the British
subjects do five times as large percentage
of the carrying of their own foreign com.
merce as citizens of the United States do OF
theirs. But on the other hand, we have 1856
600 miles of railroad against 10000 in Great
Britain, which indicates that we do nearly
portation of merchandise in our own country
as the British do in theirs: and it is by no
means certain that it is unwise and unprofit-
able for us to thus protect and promote our
domestic interests, even if the result should
be the complete and permanent surrender of
our foreign carrying trade to other nations

and at his fashionable hotel in London.
But to return to the Casino. 1t is
peculiar-looking structure of early Eng
lish design Its facade is cheapened by
shops, but its interior is very attractive.
1t has a restaurant, bar-rOOm, billiard

beautiful green court and fountain, a

pretty in itself, but far prettier when
enhanced by the presence of beauty and
fashion 1t is not free to the public of

BILE at a low cost.
Close at hand is Touro Park, very
ordinary little common, but dignltied by
very ancient trees and by the presence
of the famous old stone mill whose
history nobody knows anything about
but a great many display their learning
over. 1t is supposed to be at least a

which rise stately mansions; roomy,
costly, hospitable and comfortable be-
yond description. Here are gaudy gar
dens, shady groves, palatal conserva-
tories of iron and glass and circling
drives, lying like yellow ribbons amid
the greenery. All me! these sons and
daughters of luxury have their cares.
Anxiety, suffering and annoyances find
their way even through golden walls, but
those who dwell here make brave and
happy showing to the world, whatever
they may hide behind their walls.
1t is on the other side of these houses,
however, on what is called "the Cliff"
that one sees the summit of Newport
attractions, and realizes to the utmost
the exquisite destinations of the
place. Here the land rises abruptly
far above the blue and dancing sea,
and reaches down into it with num-
berless jagged fingers or ribs of black
and broken rock. On top of the
cliff is plateau, and it is all laid out in
lawns of the smoothest, velvety texture,
upon which the mansions of the Astors,
Lorillards, Goelets, Vanderbilts and
others rise in palatial magnificence.

the sea, and it is built of such small
houses that when you see one of the big
sound steamers ly there at her dock
you cannot help feeling that if they had
not stopped the engines just in time she
would have run into the main street and
crushed all the little stores and houses
with her enormous bow. The streets are
narrow, the shops are small, the life is
quiet and sleepy and the tone of the
place is old-fogyish-but that is what
enhances ones interest in it. 1t is d
great thing to catch lot of genuine
Yankees fast asleep. You can't do it
very often.
There are two hotels worthy of the
title in the place-one an old-fashioned,
countrifed and rather picturesque tav-
ern in the village and one, a newer and
bigger establishment, on the edge of the
swell part of the place, but neither of
them is to be compared favorably with
the better class hotels at the principal
other resorts-another proof that New
port is not for the people, but for it's
owners. Close to the more modern hotel
is 'the Casino" built and for long time
owned by Mr.. James Gordon Bennett,
whose house is nearby, in a thicket of
houses, disappointedly distant from the
sea and facing, instead, village street or
boulevard It is fine large house, how
ever, surrounded by grounds ample
enough to be called a park; and if you get
permission to enter them, as any one may,
you will get a hint of the magnificent in
terror of the mansion by seeing the back,
which ends in sort of conservatory
or semi-open hall, peopled by costly
carved marbles from the capitals of
art in Europe. The floral beauties
of the garden are grand and numerous.
Mr.. Bennett has many homes-so many
that one wonders how he can possibly
enjoy them all. He has one in Paris, one
in country part of England, this one in

to Newport for your holidays, or for
rest or for fun, or for more than very
short stay for any purpose, because it is
not public watering place or popular
resort in the general accertalion of the
terms 1t would be impossible to justify
the expression in an action at law, but
the fact remains that Newport is prac-
tically the property of close corpora
ton Of ultra fashionable cottage-owners
and their friends, and after the rest of
us have seen the exterior of their mag
niicent houses, the exquisite beauty
of the cliff, the quaint, old-fashioned
sleepiness of the village and the pride
and glory of the drives, it will be time to
go away; for we are not wanted, and II
we stay we will find ourselves so many
fifth-wheels on the local coach. But let
ME not be understood as depreciating
the value of visit there. By all means
paw that visit, for there is only one
Newport, and that one is a most
beautiful place, as you can imagine, from
the fact that the very rich, who can as
we'll live in Italy, California, or England,
have chosen the place as their summer
rendezvous and the site of their homes
for half the year.
If Newport is not the only finished,
completed and Thoroughly done place
in America it is at least the nearest so
of any place l have seen. At the first

All this is on Bellevue avenue, the
Broadway and Fifth avenue of the place
combined. To the average visitor it is
as good as a show on fine afternoon in
the height of the season to see the gayly-
dressed, happy men and women rolling
by in their four-in-hand coaches, laden
on top with figures in snowy millinery,
like moving mounds of flowers, in their
victorias and village carts, on horseback
and on foot. But it is far beyond this,
on the residence end of the avenue, that
one realizes the full import of the

COPING WITH A REALITY.
An Authenticated Anecdote OF Famous

There is story, apparently well authenti-
Gated, of General GortschakoH having one
day held parley with one who was sup
posed to be deep in the confidence of the pa
triotic Polish party. Pacing the room in
nervous excitement the Russian governor
said he could not bear the strain of his posi-
ton any longer. and exclaimed:
why do you not rise in arms? If you did

But we have no arms, your excellency,'

The Tailors' Guild Of Madrid respectfully
asked permission Of Queen Christina to pre-
sent his juvenile majesty with his first uni
form. The Queen Regent gave her assent, and
now the tailors are busy cutting out and
sewing out of the finest cloth manufactured
the smallest uniform that was probably ever
made for monarch. 1t is deliberately
trimmed with real gold lace and much orna-
mented: The question of rank arose and
was submitted to the Queen. On his first
birthday the King who was enrolled in the
army from his birth, was to be promoted.
In the Spanish army the officers wear the
insignia of rank on the Sleeve, hence 1T was
necessary for the tailors to know his degree
of rank. The Queens decision has not yet
been made known. A tiny sword, a verit-

said to be masterpiece of the jewelers. art,
goes with this remarkable uniform.

respects the charges are very moderate
there. The hotel prices are far from ex-
orbitant and the shopkeepers in the
village, as we'll as the liverymen, are apt
to be more modest in their charges than
are their brothers at many of the wholly
popular resorts. Newport is we'll worth
stopping at on the way east from New
York to Bar Harbor, Nantasket, or the
White Mountains There is enough to
see to amply fill cut visit of a couple of
days, and all of the sightseeing is of a
nature far different from that which
may be enjoyed in tour of the
other places along the Atlantic front.
But, after all, the best way to enjoy
Newport, it seems to me, is to be indus
trious, frugal, ambitious and practical
and some day own cottage there.

His Views on the Land Question.
New YORK, April 6.-The Herali's Wash
ington correspondent reports an interview
with President Cleveland in 3hieh he, re-
spending to q ocular reference to the anx-
iety of certain politicians lest his health
should permit him to endure a second term,
said: That is all in the air, and l have
nothing to do with it. My time is taken up
with my present duties, and propose to do
my work in such a way that my successor,
who ever he may be- will have nothing to
undo. 1t will be the business of the party to
name the best man; that is, the man who
can best carry out Democratic principles and
politics, and the man who can best protect
and defend the rights of the people"
The correspondent continues as follows:
said to the president; Mr., Cleveland, there
seems to be good deal of interest in this
land question just now"
